Evaluation of the Book
Rich sticky notes
How was the book
This book was very good, I liked it very much. This book was a page-turner. I liked this book because the author used a lot of detail, such as "Blood was pumping out of the end of her wrist, covering the ground and other people." I also like that Darren had enough courage to save his friend (Steve). He saved Steve by becoming Mr.Creapsly's assistant so that he will not kill Steve.
Would you recommend this book
I would recommend this book to any one who likes horror and fiction books.
What age group is this book for
This book is for ages eleven to fourteen.

Cesar
This is my dog Cesar. Cesar and I like to play tug of war and fetch. He likes to play with me in the snow. Also he looks like a rat when he gets his hair cut so we call he "Baldy". Last but not least he is the best dog I have ever had.
This is the best basketball player ever to touch the hardwood. This is MICHAEL JORDAN! Michael Jordan is one of my favorite basketball players because he helped the Bulls to a 6 year winning streak. He was also on the Wizards from 2000-2001. He was on the team with our very own Rip Hamilton. He also retired after that season.
This is my favorite basketball player in the world! He can do any trick dunk possible. The first team he was on the Toronto Rapters. He was on the team with T-mac. Now he is on the New Jersey Nets and they are a really good basketball team.

I think that the title Tuck Everlasting means that the Tuck's are everlasting and that they never give up. I also think is means life has a limit and you should not try to over go that limit. Too me the title is asking a question would you like to live life forever or go on with life and at one point die? I would want to die because I would not want to ran away every time someone starts snooping around, asking why you are not ageing, that happend to the Tuck's that's why they moved to the middle of the forest, so nobody can find them and so they will not have to keep running away. I also think the word Everlasting in the title means that you can not die or get hurt as bad.

Martin Luther King Jr
Martin Luther King Jr was a great man. He helped stop segregation in the United States. He also won the noble prize for being the most peaceful person. He also led the bus boycott. The monument that they are making for Martin Luther King is in Washington D.C. I am going to tell two reasons why I think that there should be a monument made for Martin. One, he stopped segregation. Two, he won the noble prize for peace.
Mr. King helped stop segregation by delivering many speeches in the South and a really big one in Washington D.C where over 1000 people attended. Segregation has stopped because colored people now go to school with white people. Colored people can now do any thing that white people do. Segregation has stopped and we plan to keep it that way.
Martin Luther King won the Noble Prize. I believe that he won the Noble Prize because lots of people tried to persuade Martin to be violent, but Martin never went along and hit or hurt anyone. Even the time the someone bombed his house and almost killed his family, Mr. King did not go after them and try to hurt them back. He kept his calm and forgot about it. That proves that Martin Luther King he was not violent.
Martin Luther King was famous because he helped lead most of the boycotts and thats my report on why I think there should be a monument for Martin Luther King Jr.

A light bulb relates to light because inside the light bulb are tiny watts that spark togther to create lights. There is also a coyle in the middle to help the watts spark. That light also helps us around the house and helps us do daily chores.
